SECTION 4 - PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS
4.1 Payment for Service
The Customer is responsible for the payment of all charges for facilities and services furnished by

those services are used by the Customer itself or are resold or shared with other persons.

recurring charges for the service or facility. In addition, where special construction is
involved, the advance payment may also include an amount equal to the estimated

period to be set between the Company and the Customer. The advance payment will be
credited to the Customer's initial bill and may be required in addition to a deposit.

SECTION 4 - PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS (CONT'D)
4.4.5 Any deposit required of an existing Customer is due and payable within ten days after the
requirement is imposed. This requirement shall be in writing and the payment date shall
be on or after the due and payable date for the current bill. If said deposit or installment
thereof, as appropriate, is not paid within the aforementioned time frame, the Company
may suspend service of the Customer without further notice. The following are
exceptions to this provision:
4.4.5.1 In the event service is suspended for a Customer for nonpayment, an initial or
additional deposit shall be required prior to the restoration of service if existing
security is insufficient.
4.4.5.2 In the event prior indebtedness or prior unsatisfactory credit has been determined
subsequent to the initial establishment of service due to misrepresentation of the
facts by the Customer, a deposit shall be due and payable within five days upon
verbal notification and written confirmation or within ten days when notification
can only be provided in writing. The ten day period shall be measured from the
mailed date of the written notice. If said deposit is not paid within the
aforementioned time frame, the Company may suspend service to the Customer
without further notice.
4.4.6 The amount of the deposit shall be the estimated charges for the Service which will
accrue for a 2-month period. All applicants and existing Customers shall be treated
uniformly for the determination and application of deposits.
4.4.7 When it is determined that a deposit is required under the conditions specified above, the
applicant or Customer may, in lieu of or in addition to making the deposit, arrange for an
acceptable third party to guarantee payment of his charges by executing on his behalf a
Guarantee of Payment Agreement with the Company. An acceptable third party guarantor
for Service is a current non residential customer with at least two years continuous
service, whose payment history for the most recent twelve month period is satisfactory.
4.4.8 The fact that a deposit has been made in no way relieves the Customer from complying
with the Company's regulations as to advance payments, or the prompt payment of bills
on presentation.
4.4.9 The deposit will bear simple interest computed from the date of its receipt by the
Company to the date the deposit is refunded, or service is terminated, or annually upon
request of the Customer. In the event that a deposit is retained during time periods having
different rates of interest, the interest accrued on the deposit will be calculated using the
interest rate applicable to each time period.

4.4.10 When the Customer is a candidate for political office or is a person or organization acting
on behalf of a candidate for political office the deposit requirement will be adjusted
monthly to reflect twice the current month's actual billing. Under these circumstances, a
security, i.e., surety bond or bank letter of credit equal to the Company's deposit
requirement will be the only acceptable substitutes for a cash deposit.
4.4.11 The applicable interest rate to be paid on Customer deposits will be equivalent to the rate
paid on 2-year U.S. treasury notes for the preceding 12 months ending December 31 of
any year or as otherwise required by the Commission and its rules.
4.4.12 When service is terminated, the amount of the initial or additional deposit, with any
interest due, will be credited to the Customer's account and any credit balance which may
remain will be refunded. After an existing customer has established satisfactory credit,
the amount of the deposit, with any interest due, will be either credited to the account or
at the option of the Customer, refunded. Satisfactory credit for a Customer is defined as
twelve consecutive months of Service without suspension for nonpayment and with no
more than one notification of intent to suspend service for nonpayment.

provide service to a Customer, or if a condition immediately dangerous or hazardous to
life, physical safety or property exists, or if a casualty renders all or any material portion
of such facilities inoperable beyond feasible repair, the Company, by notice to the
Customer, may discontinue or suspend service without incurring any liability.

bankruptcy or reorganization, or failing to discharge an involuntary petition within the
time permitted by law, the Company may immediately require a deposit without
incurring any liability.

those specified below.
4.6.2 Where, prior to cancellation by the Customer, the Company incurs any expenses in
installing the service or in preparing to install the service that it otherwise would not have
incurred, a charge equal to the costs the Company incurred, less net salvage, shall apply,
but in no case shall this charge exceed the sum of the charge for the minimum period of
services ordered, including installation charges, and all charges others levy against the
Company that would have been chargeable to the Customer had service begun (all
discounted to present value at six percent (6%)).
4.6.3 Where the Company incurs any expense in connection with special construction, or
where special arrangements of facilities or equipment have begun, before the Company
receives a cancellation notice, a charge equal to the costs incurred, less net salvage,
applies. In such cases, the charge will be based on such elements as the cost of the
equipment, facilities, and material, the cost of installation, engineering, labor, and
supervision, general and administrative expense, other disbursements, depreciation,
maintenance, taxes, provision for return on investment, and any other costs associated
with the special construction or arrangements.

SECTION 9 - ALLOWANCES FOR INTERRUPTIONS IN SERVICE
9.1 General
9.1.1 Interruptions in service, which are not due to the negligence of, or noncompliance with
the provisions of the tariffs of the Company by, the Customer or of an authorized or Joint
User, or the operation or malfunction of the facilities, power or equipment provided by
the Customer, will be credited to the Customer as set forth below for the part of the
service that the interruption affects.
9.1.2 A credit allowance will be made when an interruption occurs because of a failure of any
component furnished by the Company under its tariffs. An interruption period begins
when the Customer reports a service, facility or circuit is interrupted and releases it for
testing and repair. An interruption period ends when the service, facility or circuit is
operative. If the Customer reports a service, facility or circuit to be inoperative but
declines to release it for testing and repair, it is considered to be impaired, but not
interrupted.
9.1.3 For calculating credit allowances, every month is considered to have 30 days. A credit
allowance is applied on a pro rata basis against the rates specified hereunder and is
dependent upon the length of the interruption. Only those facilities on the interrupted
portion of the circuit will receive a credit.
9.1.4 A credit allowance will be given for interruptions of 30 minutes or more. Credit
allowances shall be calculated as follows:
9.2 Interruptions of 16 Hours or Less
9.2.1 Length of Service Interruption Credit
-Less than 1 hour None
-1 hour up to but not including 8 hours 1/4 of day
-8 hours up to but not including 12 hours 1/2 of day
-12 hours up to but not including 16 hours 3/4 of day
-16 hours up to but not including 24 hours one day
9.2 Two or more service interruptions of the same type to the same line/equipment of two (2) hours
or more during any one twenty-four (24) hour period shall be considered as one interruption. In
no event shall such interruption credits for any one line/equipment exceed one (1) day's fixed
recurring charges for such line/equipment in any twenty-four (24) hour period.
